Records of Mysterious Things in the Southern Dynasties

Chapter 200 Ren Yuan's Price

On the river outside the formation, Xue Dingnan, Diwuwei and others were using their magical powers to try to search for clues left by the other party.

At this time, A Yao also caught up with them, and saw this and became very anxious: "Where is Yuan? Where did you take Yuan?"

"Don't worry, Ayao. Listen to me." Nangong quickly explained the situation to the impulsive Ayao and comforted her, "Don't worry, we will definitely find him."

"I have my own way to find Yuan!" After A Yao understood the situation, he summoned his flying sword Ziwei without saying a word.

After Princess Yongkang's treatment, the corpse poison in her body was completely gone and she could use the flying sword at will.

She placed all her concerns for Ren Yuan on her own natal flying sword. The Ziwei sword circled in the air for several times, making a sword sound that pierced the sky!
After a while, everyone heard the clear sound of swords coming from several miles away, responding to the call of the Ziwei Sword.

The Ziwei Sword let out a joyful cry, and shot straight towards the sound, turning into a thunderbolt that directly split the sky!
In the blink of an eye, the entire sky shattered into pieces like porcelain, revealing a vast expanse of water.

"It's actually possible to break the formation like this. This flying sword is too outrageous, isn't it?" Yuchi Bei said in shock.

Nangong explained: "The sword in Ayao's hand is the female sword, and the sword in Ren Yuan's hand is the male sword. The male and female swords are connected."

"That feeling is a bit too strong..." Yuchi Bei muttered, but since it was his own child, he didn't delve into it further.

Once the formation is broken, those inside will have nowhere to hide.

Shui Bingbing was shocked, but she made a quick decision and flew into the sky, trying to escape.

"Where are you escaping to?" Xue Dingnan shouted, and the Yang God instantly caught up with the dragon, grabbed her horns tightly, and pulled her down from mid-air.

On the other side, Dong Dangmen also wanted to escape, but he heard Ren Yuan yelling, "You can't bear to leave me behind."

Dong Dangmen couldn't help but pause, feeling that he really shouldn't have abandoned Ren Yuan.

In a flash, I came to my senses. What the hell was he talking about? Who was he? Why couldn't I just leave him behind?

But when he tried to perform the escape technique again, Ren Yuan had already taken the opportunity to pounce on him, grabbed his legs and hugged him, shouting, "Actually I don't want to leave. Actually you want to stay, stay and accompany me every spring, summer, autumn and winter..."

Dong Dangmen was so confused by all the nonsense that he finally broke free from Ren Yuan and tried to escape, but he was already unable to escape Yuchi Bei's demon-binding rope and was tied up like a dumpling...

Ren Yuan also lost his strength and fell towards the water. Fortunately, A Yao's attention was fully focused on him, and he quickly caught him steadily.

Only then did everyone see that there was a wounded dragon floating on the river, and it was dying.

"Are these the two dragons in the Yangtze River?" Xue Dingnan looked at this one, then at the one that Yang Shen caught.

"Yes, it's the sisters Shui Miaomiao and Shui Bingbing." Yuchi Bei nodded and said in disbelief, "Isn't Dong Dangmen not good at fighting? How come he is so powerful that he can fight two people alone and almost kill one of them?"

"I don't have that ability." Dong Dangmen looked at Ren Yuan with a complicated expression and said, "Your Gou Chen Division is really full of hidden talents. A mere ghost swordsman can actually kill a dragon alone."

"Boy, are you so powerful?" Xue Dingnan looked at Ren Yuan.

"I don't know what happened..." Ren Yuan spread his hands, bewildered. "I felt like I was going to die, so I just risked my life, and then I don't remember anything."

"It seems this is your price." The fifth dimension said seriously.

"What's the price?" everyone asked.

"Reckless!" The Fifth Dimension sighed, "Alas, Yuan was originally a very calm boy, always thinking twice before acting, and as mature and prudent as an old man. But now he is desperate and can even kill a dragon. He dares to cling to the great supernatural power. This is obviously the price he has to pay."

"That makes sense." Everyone nodded. There are two kinds of prices for supernatural powers. One is to magnify your shortcomings, and the other is to go from one extreme to another. In this way, Ren Yuan's price should be the latter.

"I don't know whether this is lucky or unfortunate," Yuchi Bei sighed, "He is only at the fourth level, but he can actually defeat the dragon of a higher level if he rushes. It seems that this price can significantly improve his combat power."

After a pause, he continued, "But there are countless characters in this world who are more powerful than a mere dragon, especially in the capital. Perhaps an untimely outburst could cost him his life."

"Alas, the price is indeed too high." Nangong sighed.

"You guys keep an eye on him from now on. If the situation gets bad, take him back to the yamen immediately," Xue Dingnan ordered.

"Yes, sir." Diwuwei and Nangong responded in a deep voice.

"This is not the place to talk," Yuchi Bei picked up Dong Dangmen and said in a deep voice, "The guard and I will take the two prisoners back to the yamen first. You clean up the battlefield and take the main force back."

"Yes." The fifth dimension responded.

Xue Dingnan then carried Shui Bingbing and Shui Miaomiao, and disappeared from everyone's sight with Yuchi Bei. With their magical powers, they could quickly teleport back outside Jiankang City.

As soon as the two guards left, the Fifth Dimension sent a signal to the large force on the official ship, asking them to turn around and return to Jiankang.

Nangong recovered the broken "Thousand Miles of Smoke and Waves".

"We have a colleague in our company who can repair the magic weapon. Take it back and let him take a look." Nangong said to Ren Yuan and the others.

"Sister Nan is really thrifty." Ren Yuan stood up from A Yao's arms and no longer pretended to be weak.

He had publicly played his main role in Peach Blossom Land a long time ago, so Diwuwei and Nangong knew how he defeated Shui Miaomiao.

What the Fifth Dimension said just now was just to help him cover up.

"That's right. Without Nangong, our family will break up." The Fifth Dimension agreed with him.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Who is this family with you?" Nangong glanced at him happily and quickly changed the subject: "Tell me, why are the two guards so anxious to go back?"

"Do I need to ask?" Diwuwei touched his nose and looked at the vast river surface and said, "Who doesn't know that these two female dragons are having an affair with a certain dragon son?"

"Is it the Prince of Yuzhang?" Ren Yuan asked softly at this time.

"Oh, this kind of thing really spreads fast. You've only been in Beijing for a few days and you've heard about it?" The Fifth Dimension looked at Ren Yuan in surprise.

"Where did I hear that?" Ren Yuan shook his head and said, "It was the gatekeeper Dong who told me... He didn't say that either, he just said that the two dragons were sent by Prince Yuzhang to kill him."

"He actually confessed without being asked." The Fifth Dimension thought for a moment with his hands behind his back and said, "That's right, he's going to be silenced, so what's there to hide?"

"The two guards are in a hurry to leave to avoid unnecessary trouble." Nangong raised his chin, looked at the warships coming on the river and said, "The Danyang navy is coming."

"Hey, you are indeed worthy of being the Lord of Guards. You react quickly." The Fifth Dimension said with a smile: "If we leave late, it will be really troublesome."

"Is this the army of Prince Yuzhang?" Ren Yuan asked.

"Smart." Diwuwei nodded and said, "Prince Yuzhang is now the governor of Danyang. He is in charge of the local military forces in Danyang County."
